☀️ Beating the heat: No clothes necessary
Plus: Local hard seltzers you have to try.
By Grace Madigan
Happy Tuesday, Seattle.
Why “happy”? Because for the first time in a few days, we will NOT see three-digit temperatures. 🤪
Hopefully, you all managed the extreme heat and kept yourself and your pets safe and healthy. The unprecedented heat and lack of AC resulted in tons of people flocking to the water. Including myself
Some friends and I ended up going to Denny Blaine, which if you didn’t know, is a nude beach — a detail I didn’t remember when the idea was thrown out for consideration. However, any sense of hesitation on my part was quickly erased when my feet hit the water. (For the record, I opted to keep my bathing suit on.) Plus, it being Pride weekend, there was a sense of celebration and camaraderie among the beach goers. This was a place where you feel comfortable in your own skin — literally.
Last thing about Denny Blaine and then I swear we'll get to today's news: I found this old article from KUOW which discussed the fact that it’s totally legal to be nude in Seattle any time, anywhere. You can’t flash people and make them uncomfortable, but you can technically go to any public park and be naked and not worry about being arrested. How’s that for a fun fact for ya?
